My Cobra motor has a frozen cam on the drivers side head which broke the timing chain. It's $5500 to pull motor and fix the head. I am worried that there could be more wrong. Is It better to just get the same cast iron cobra long block or get the 4.6 4V Aluminator block? I am running full length headers, catless x-pipe, A brand new Kenne Bell 2.8 Lc supercharger and its putting out about 666 rwhp on 94 Octane..

I'd get the 46x shortblock and fix the heads.. They don't really make the long blocks anymore because the 03/04 Cobra heads aren't made anymore iirc.. But the 46x shortblock makes it like 9.8 compression and combine that with e85 it'll be nasty
